Summary
Metro has done an excellent job making a name for themselves in Boston. The inability to open stand alone accounts makes it an inconvenient option for those looking to declutter and better organize their finances.
What We Love...
Generous CD rates
Deposits are fully insured by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) and the Massachusetts Share Insurance Corporation (MSIC)
What We Don't...
Interest is only compounded daily for CDs with a 3-11 month term. Other CDs are not compounded.
Free checking account is charged a fee for inactivity.
Interest earning checking account requires a large minimum balance.
Member account is required and has to maintain a certain balance to avoid fees.
Savings rates can change at any time, and depositors may not be notified.
Long wait times on the phone
